Come to San Diego, California August 25-28 for the 2010 LEAD Conference! The conference opens with eight in-depth pre-conference workshops followed by three full days of interactive discussions, including the ever-popular legal session with a representative from the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice. Each day is packed with opportunities to network and experience the latest accessible technologies - there's even a chance to take an accessible tour of the San Diego Zoo!

New to LEAD this year is the first of what will become a series of capacity building workshops. These hands-on sessions are open to individuals who work with arts administrators to provide high-quality accessibility services. Our inaugural seminar will train new describers and provide professional development for those who are experienced.
